"Well, when you put it that way! ;)
Actually, in the summer we've had a fan going in Nathan's room at night and in the winter it's a small heater (the fan runs all night but the heater goes on and off). It seems to me this provides a consistent background noise that diminishes the potential disturbance of other noises and helps him sleep better. Do you think there's something intrinsically wrong with this or some negative side effect?" - rodmitch
"I was getting so many, usually from the same set of people, I got sick of
saying no to something so stupid and was glad to find that setting. I
haven't even thought about those read receipts for months!" - rodmitch
"Do you have a source for this? I remember it being Emerson? but with different wording. I also remember I sourced it once and then, the next time I tried, I couldn't find it." - rodmitch
"I don't think it's news regardless of who it is. That's pretty much what
they've come to be expected to do for a living. Although there are
exceptions, of course." - rodmitch
"I do use Diigo but mainly for bookmarking, not so much annotating. I use single-page links if/when I print and sometimes to read online or bookmark at Instapaper. I'm not sure about the archival quality of the printer-friendly links. Good question. I only use Instapaper for things I want to read but not necessarily bookmark for good. I would bookmark the item's main page on Diigo for that." - rodmitch
"Good point. Growth is useful to compare to growth in other cities but misses
all the 'quality of life' factors that can change pretty dramatically with
rapid growth (or decline)." - rodmitch
"That's sort of the gist of my point. What marriage "is", ontologically, if you will, is long established. It's not my opinion or that of anyone that makes it what it is. There aren't various "definitions" of marriage. There's marriage and there are things that are not marriage. Describing one thing in the same way as a second thing doesn't make the first become the second." - rodmitch
"Hey thanks for your comment! I just found your blog a week or two ago and love all the food content. The post I linked to on Ffffood didn't mention the lime juice which, obviously makes it even more ceviche-esque. And that's what inspired me to start looking for other, similar ideas.
You're right about the tomato caviar, though. That's the part I kept thinking about. I haven't had a chance to make any yet---I'm waiting for our tomatoes to come in---but it is such a simple, beautiful, flavorful idea." - rodmitch
"Yeah, I used to use BugMeNot and it's awesome. Now, it's just more like, why? Honestly if I really want to read something I'll put in some effort but most of the time, meh. The bar is getting higher." - rodmitch
But... there are grains (well, there were before they were processed), meat, dairy, and some vegetables there. - Yolanda
I grew up with the four food groups, in which a meat pizza is the perfect food. But the guv'mint moved to the pyramid... - Ontario Emperor
I try to ensure I have one serving of the nachos group each day. - Vince DeGeorge
This already has a name. It's called "night lunch", at least in Southern Manitoba. I've been trying to expand the concept to California and it's catching on. At least in my house. I appreciate Taco Bell's help. - rodmitch
Southern Manitoba? So when Taco Bell talks about "the border," perhaps they mean the border between Minnesota/North Dakota and Manitoba. :) - Ontario Emperor
"Hey, that's pretty cool, thanks! I'd love to see something like that for
State Legislatures but in California there are no transcripts of the floor
activities to index. Maybe an index of the text of the bills that are
debated each day of session would be interesting. Hmmm..." - rodmitch
“Anyone else find that a Highchair is not all that it is cracked up to be? We ditched ours after 6 months and bought a small booster seat with a tray.”
Thanks for the link Mike. Perhaps for child number 2 we will go with the Ikea version! - Jon-Paul Bussoli
Ditto on that IKEA highchair. We've been happy with it. Light, small, easy to clean. It comes with a tray not pictured. - rodmitch
We use the Fisher-Price Rainforest High Chair. Our son's been using it since he was able to sit up and eat (he's now 21 months). It comes with a toy that latches on to the tray to keep him entertained while we get the food ready. http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-P... - RyanEs
